Continuing on
from Radical Progress (2003), this new volume of
aphoristic
philosophy by John O'Loughlin is not only
more
comprehensively exacting than the previous one - and indeed all the
earlier
works of his-not-inconsiderable oeuvre - in relation to the
various
ideological permutations of both state and church, politics and
religion, but
more logically insightful of the diametrically opposite ways in which
what has
been termed 'world overcoming' operates, whether from a secular or an
ecclesiastic
standpoint, to the end of maintaining either the alpha ideal of somatic
freedom
from the standpoint of a female hegemony or the omega ideal of psychic
freedom
from the standpoint of a male hegemony, neither of which kinds of
ideal,
respectively evil and graceful, are or ever can be compatible, and
therefore
necessitate and invariably result in contrary types of society which,
for
obvious reasons, rarely if ever 'see eye to eye', but remain at gender
loggerheads with each other for as long as 'the world' persists.The 'world' as defined in the ensuing text,
however, is no simple monolith where the People are concerned, but is
divisible, on the above-mentioned basis, between those who take 'the
earth' for
granted in what Mr O'Loughlin has
described as a
democratic/plutocratic type of worldly bias and those, on the contrary,
who
live in hope of salvation from 'the world' in what has been called a
bureaucratic/meritocratic type of worldly
bias which,
scorning 'the earth', is avowedly anti-earthly in character and the
precondition, through sin, of heavenly grace.Therefore, split asunder between two types of worldly society,
the People,
the Electorate, the Many, etc., cannot be evaluated according to any
one set of
criteria, but have to be differentiated on the basis of whether they
ethnically
appertain to the one manifestation of 'the world' or to the other, with
contrary fates in both state and church, as described in this, the
author's
most ideologically conclusive project to-date. - A Centretruths
